We prove that all open string theory disc amplitudes in a flat background obey Britto-Cachazo-Feng-Witten (BCFW) on-shell recursion relations, up to a possible reality condition on a kinematic invariant. Arguments that the same holds for…
We show that the average null energy condition implies novel lower bounds on the scaling dimensions of highly-chiral primary operators in four-dimensional conformal field theories. Denoting the spin of an operator by a pair of integers…
The Large Charge sector of Conformal Field Theory (CFT) can generically be described through a semiclassical expansion around a superfluid background. In this work, focussing on $U(1)$ invariant Wilson-Fisher fixed points, we study the…
We generalize the idea of boundary states to the open string channel. They describe emission and absorption of open strings in the presence of intersecting D-branes. We construct the explicit oscillator representation for the free boson and…
The purpose of this note is to describe a unified approach to the fundamental results in the spectral theory of boundary value problems, restricted to the case of Dirac type operators. Even though many facts are known and well presented in…
The Euclidean Anti-de Sitter (AdS) space provides a natural framework for studying boundary conformal field theory (BCFT). We analyze the conformal boundary conditions of the critical O$(N)$ model in $d=4-\epsilon$ dimensions using the…
We study three-point correlation functions of scalar operators in conformal field theories with boundaries and interfaces. We focus on two cases where there are one bulk and two boundary operators (B$\partial\partial$), or two bulk and one…
We use the level truncation scheme to obtain accurate descriptions of open bosonic string field configurations corresponding to large marginal deformations such as background Wilson lines. To do so, we solve for all fields as functions of…
Motivated by recent progress in calculating field theory amplitudes, we study applications of the basic ideas in these developments to the calculation of amplitudes in string theory. We consider in particular both non-Abelian and Abelian…

Let $\phi(z)=(\phi_1(z),...,\phi_n(z))$ be a holomorphic self-map of $B$ and $\psi(z)$ a holomorphic function on $B$, where $B$ is the unit ball of ${\Bbbb C}^n$. Let $0<p,s<+\infty, -n-1<q<+\infty, q+s>-1$ and $\alpha\geq 0,$ this paper…
The paper provides a coherent presentation of an operator scheme, which is used in an approach to inverse problems of mathematical physics (the boundary control method). The scheme is based on the triangular factorization of operators. It…
We show that in boundary CFTs, there exists a one-to-one correspondence between the boundary operator expansion of the two-point correlation function and a power series expansion of the layer susceptibility. This general property allows the…
